»As we make efforts at decolonizing the curriculum, this volume offers excellent interdisciplinary points of reference within and beyond literary studies, history, global/diaspora studies, European studies, Africana studies, and minority studies. It offers useful knowledge on Europe and its relationship with its past and present, and most importantly, it helps us understand and think about the current efforts at addressing structural racism and injustice.«
»Ein wichtiger Beitrag zu den Studien zum ›Schwarzen Afrika‹, weil die Zusammenschau, die der Band möglich macht, die nationale Orientierung zu überwinden trachtet und zeigt, dass ›[c]olonization was a panEuropean project‹.«
»An important contribution to studies on ›Black Africa‹, because the overview provided by this volume seeks to move beyond a national focus and demonstrates that ›[c]olonization was a pan-European project‹.« (translated from German)
